My Animation Era Chapter 1081

Chapter 1081 Platycodon is Platycodon, and Kagome is Kagome?

 “Superman is really popular!”

Liu Zida, who is far away in China, looked at the views of the "Superman Returns" animation preview video that he stayed up late last night and couldn't help but exclaimed.

In just one night, the video views exceeded 2 million, and it even made it into the top ten of Wanbao Video's "Today's Hot" list.

 Superman's traffic is too exaggerated!

It can be said that the quality of his video this time is almost the same as usual. The reason why the number of views is four to five times higher than usual is because of the attention of Superman animation.

 No wonder those bloggers who make videos all like to use popular animations!

Although it doesn't sound good to say it, the number of views is really high...

But then again.

 UP owners who have as many followers as Liu Zida have already taken things like popularity very lightly. They will not be like new video bloggers who will swarm into a hot spot when they find it.

Just like now, although he knows that the video of "Superman Returns" will have higher views and attract more attention, Liu Zida still decided to make an in-depth explanation video about "InuYasha" as planned.

 Small UP owners blindly chase hot spots, while big UP owners create and explore hot spots!

It has been half a year since the animation "Inuyasha" was launched. There is not much discussion on the Internet about this animation. With years of experience in making videos, Liu Zida felt that this material was very promising.

Especially when the entire Internet is focusing on the animation "Superman Returns", it is definitely a wise choice for him to make a video about "Inuyasha".

 “Inuyasha…”

After deciding on the material for the next video, Liu Zida discussed with the copywriter he hired, from which angle should the video copy be written?

 This is a headache.

"Inuyasha" is a Neon animation. After being broadcast in Neon's home country, it has gained the love of countless animation fans. After being introduced to the country, the playback volume is also not low.

Within half a year, hundreds of anime bloggers, large and small, have made videos related to "Inuyasha".

  It can be said that everyone has basically talked about what this animation should talk about, and there is not much content left for Liu Zida to analyze in depth...

 “Why don't you talk about the love between men and monsters represented by Inuyasha?”

The copywriting planner suggested: "In recent years, it is not difficult to find that human-monster love is a new hot spot in the animation industry. Many works have introduced a monster or non-human protagonist to fall in love with the male and female protagonists."

“You can talk about this, but it's not worth spending too much time talking about.” Liu Zida shook his head.

The element of **** love is indeed very common in recent years. Many animations can see the background settings of human protagonists and non-human protagonists falling in love.

But to be honest, love between humans and monsters has not only started to rise in recent years. As early as many years ago in "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio", there were many stories about the love between humans and monsters and the love between humans and ghosts.

to be honest.

You think the subject matter of "Inuyasha" is very new, that's because you have too little experience.

There are countless folklore stories like this all over the world, not to mention China, but they have not been made into animations or live-action movies, and they are not very well-known, so few people have heard of them.

  "Why don't we talk about the controversy caused by the love triangle in the "Inuyasha" animation, and why Kikyo has so few appearances, but is as popular as the heroine Kagome!"

 “This is a good entry point…”

Liu Zida nodded. As a viewer, when he was watching the animation, he was actually very annoyed by the animation scriptwriter's unreasonable love triangle hype techniques.

 I almost showed him the trap.

 He doesn't understand, what is the relationship between Kikyo and Kagome? If we really follow the "past life and present life" setting at the beginning of the animation, then these two people are clearly the same person.

But the further he looked at the animation, the more he felt that the screenwriter was poisonous. After a good reincarnation, Kikyo was Kikyo and Kagome was Kagome, and they separated into two people.

 Be reasonable.

Liu Zida once believed that the partisanship in the comments section of the anime "Inuyasha", especially the quarrel between Kikyo fans and Kagome fans, was intentional on the part of the production team.

 Because this could have been avoided, and there was no conflict between Kagome and Kikyo. After all, one was from the past life and the other was from this life. However, under the malicious instigation of the supervisor and screenwriter, the fans of the two actually started to fight!

 This is too abstract...

“It is undeniable that Inuyasha is still a rare classic animation. Whether it is character creation or plot direction, all aspects are in line with expectations.”

"But I still want to ask the production team, what do you think of the character of Platycodon? Is it a love triangle and a tool to hype up party strife?"

 Liu Zida is an old troll.

 He ​​has no objection to the characters themselves. Whether it is Kikyo or Kagome, he likes them very much. He even thinks that the characterization of these two people is very good.

 But the question remains, isn't the past life and present life a setting proposed by the production team themselves?

　　Why does this setting become more and more ridiculous as the animation progresses, as if it doesn't exist? Blurring the concept of past and present lives and making the audience think that Kikyo and Kagome are two independent people, isn't this what the production team is doing?

 “It's so squirting!”

Gu Miao clapped her hands on the table excitedly: "The animation of "Inuyasha" has indeed gone astray. It is always thinking about a love triangle and party disputes. It is simply blinded by lard."

Isn't it good to stick to the main line honestly?

 Just collect the Shikon Jade fragments and let Inuyasha and Kagome's relationship slowly warm up. I had to make some trouble in the middle, now it's fine, I'll be sprayed, right?

˜The animation "Inuyasha" is indeed a good work, but it must also be admitted that the screenwriter's supervision is "malicious" to a certain extent, which makes the animation look down several levels.

 Why do you keep thinking about bitter love?

If Gu Miao hadn't sobered up quickly, he would have almost forgotten that "InuYasha" is still a hot-blooded series with adventurous and combat elements.

 “Seto is really floating.”

Gu Miao speculated maliciously.

　　Although the original "Inuyasha" also has this problem, it is not particularly obvious. The Wanbao version of "Inuyasha" is not bad, but in the middle period it turns into a bitter love comedy.

Yes, that's right…

　　The good "InuYasha" was made into a gimmick-filled youth love animation in the hands of Seto, focusing on the sadomasochistic love triangle.

When Gu Miao saw this, she was almost so angry that she spit blood on the screen.

 Going astray!

The original "Inuyasha" is not like this. What on earth is this guy Seto doing? Is he crazy?

This is not a campus romantic comedy, but a serious passionate adventure animation!

 Liu Zida's sharp comments touched Gu Miao's heart.

 After watching this video, he quickly called Seto, scolded him in an extremely angry manner, and asked Seto to make rectifications immediately.

 He was also wrong.

 The mistake was that during this period, because he was distracted by works such as "Go Boy" and "Superman Returns", he forgot to pay attention to the "Inuyasha" animation next door.

As a result, with this amazing effort, Seto gave him a big job, and it was the kind of unparalleled bad job...    Thanks to the large enough fan base of "Inuyasha", otherwise, he would have done this bad job, and the reputation and ratings would have been lost. We have already hit rock bottom.

 “Private Marseille!”

 After being scolded by Mr. Gu, Seto also realized the problem and immediately stated: "I will revise the scripts for the next few episodes to get the out-of-control story back on track."

 “I'm so disappointed, Seto.”

“If you feel that the work is very stressful and "Inuyasha" is a dispensable work, then I can find someone to replace you."

Gu Miao criticized: "The sun will not stop because of one person, and Wanbao will not stop because of your departure. You are not irreplaceable, do you understand?"

 “I understand, I'm sorry…”

Seto sincerely apologized: "Because Nishio and I have been busy working on the "Dragon Ball" theatrical version recently, I was negligent."

"I don't want this to happen a second time. If something happens to "Inuyasha" again, get out of here!"

 Gu Miao, who has always been mild-tempered, rarely got really angry. She scolded Seto on the phone for more than ten minutes. When her anger subsided, she asked, "What's going on with the theatrical version of "Dragon Ball"?"

“Nishio is in the next room. I'll call him over and let him report on the work to you!”

Probably because he was afraid of being sprayed, Seto quickly called Nishio over to share Mr. Gu's firepower. It just so happens that he is also the supervisor of the "Dragon Ball" theatrical version, so it makes sense for him to report on the work.

“President, it's like this…”

Nishio is different from Seto. He has a more optimistic and cheerful personality. Even though he was scolded by Mr. Gu, he didn't take it to heart. He introduced the production of the "Dragon Ball" theatrical version with a smile.

According to him, this time the theatrical version of "Dragon Ball" is named "Dragon Ball: The Best in the World".

The plot mainly tells that after the 23rd Martial Arts Tournament, the Wukong family returned to their peaceful life. Unexpectedly, a mysterious group of people stole Bulma's Dragon Ball detection radar and were secretly collecting Dragon Balls.

It turns out that this group of people actually wanted to use the power of the dragon to resurrect the genius scientist from fifty years ago, and the goal of this genius scientist was to transplant the brain into the body of the world's strongest person in order to rule the world.

By coincidence, Goku, who had just defeated the Big Devil Piccolo and won the first place in the world, was their target...

 The plot of "Dragon Ball: No. 1 Under Heaven" always sounded familiar to Gu Miao, as if he had heard of it somewhere.

 But that's not important.

 He said a long time ago that if you want to make a theatrical version of "Dragon Ball", the most important thing is the plot.

 For those who watch Dragon Ball, how many of them come here for the plot? Isn't everyone here to watch the fight?

As long as you are ready to fight, the rest will be just embellished, just like in the "Transformers" movie when the male and female protagonists fell in love and no one cared about it, or the fight between Megatron and Optimus Prime caused exclamations.

 Speaking of fighting…

Nishio told Gu Miao that thanks to the sophistication of the animated film, the fights in the Dragon Ball movie version are ten times more exciting than the TV version!

 This is all done with money.

It's no joke to burn money. A battle scene of just ten minutes may consume 70% or even 80% of the production budget of the entire theatrical version.

certainly!

Just using words to describe it, Gu Miao didn't know how good the effect Xiwei said was, so he asked Xiwei to provide material samples to see what it looked like.

 “I will encrypt it and send it to you.”

Nishio said it was no problem, it was just some completed material. Mr. Gu could watch it if he wanted to. As long as it was not leaked, it would be fine.

 As for whether the documents will be leaked?

There should be no need to worry about this. Although Mr. Gu's personal computer is often attacked by "hackers", and those hackers delete his hard drive private collection in a very poor manner, but under normal circumstances, Mr. Gu will not use a personal computer to save it. secret document.

 He has done this kind of thing before...

Later, after realizing that personal computers were not as secure as company computers and that secrets could easily be stolen through illegal means, Gu Miao no longer dared to do this.

Actually, those hackers were all cowards, and none of them could be said to be very skilled. Even the method of invading Gu Miao's computer was quite speechless when it was spread.

 Send a private message to Gu Miao on Weibo and tell him that there is a collection of private photos of XX female stars here. Gu will be fooled and foolishly download the Trojan horse virus to his computer...

Later on, she was deceived so many times that Gu Miao no longer trusted the fans who sent them private messages.

There is no way, he is the boss of a large company after all, and his personal computer has been hacked. What is this?

 Gu Miao, who learned a lot from the experience, honestly used the company computer to receive the encrypted files, and then entered the key to decompress and watch them.

 Don't even say that!

 Nishio didn't exaggerate this time. The fighting scenes in the theater version are indeed many times more delicate and refined than the TV version. The look and feel is simply great.

The material that Xiwei gave to Gu Miao was actually a "Turtle Style Qigong Wave".

 But this time the Turtle Style Qigong Wave is much more gorgeous than the TV version, and the special effects look more refined and delicate, no longer a simple beam of light.

certainly!

 The most important factor in improving the look and feel is the increase in resolution.

 What is the resolution of the TV version?

 The resolution of the theatrical version is 4K! Although this 4K is actually a "pseudo-4K" animation upgraded from 2K original clips through technical means, it is more comfortable to watch than the TV version.

 “4K looks really shocking!”

When Gu Miao said this, he suddenly remembered the advice someone once gave him: make a real 4K hand-drawn animation!

  He was not interested in this suggestion before. On the one hand, he did not have the time and energy. On the other hand, he also felt that 4K animation was a bit wasteful and unnecessary.

But now after taking a look at the pseudo-4K Turtle Style Qigong Wave, he suddenly felt that 4K animation is not useless?

  At least…

This look and feel is not at the same level as 720p or 1080p. It feels like the old animation from decades ago is the same as the new animation now.

 “4K is too advanced.”

“If you really want to do it, why not start with 2K? If I remember correctly, there are not many 2K purely hand-drawn animations?”

Gu Miao became more and more excited as she thought about it.

 4K animation is indeed a bit advanced and a bit wasteful. Even if it is produced, not many viewers have the hardware to meet the needs.

  But 2K can be done…

 Nowadays, 1080p animation has become mainstream, especially 3D animation, which generally has a high resolution.

Based on this premise, Gu Miao's next new work can be produced at 2K resolution to give everyone a little bit of a picture quality shock.
